Reliance Industries' latest earnings and Jio Platforms' listing are bringing fresh attention to the company's growth prospects. The continued strength in refining margins, higher diesel cracks and discounted Venezuelan crude are expected to support its Oil-to-Chemicals (O2C) business. Deven Choksey, Managing Director, Dr Choksey Finserv Private Limited, explains how Jio Platforms' valuation could unlock additional value for Reliance shareholders, while potential dividend income from Jio's free cash flows could further strengthen the parent company's financials. With Reliance's EBITDA projected to rise from around ₹2.4–2.5 lakh crore to nearly ₹2.7 lakh crore, the company's refining business and Jio value remain key growth triggers.
